Dakota the Place for Eastern
Farmers Who Have Little
Money to Invest.
There Are Plenty of Cheap
Lands in the Best Sec

The Evidence Of Men Who

Letters of Some Well-KnoWr
Citizens, Telling What

Another installment of letters from
Dakota farmers is printed in this issue
of the GLOBE. They bear the stamp of
genuineness, and show their freedom
from any interested influence, because
the names are signed to them. And
they are not written by land agents, or
money lenders, or men who would hope
to reap pecuniary benefit by getting
people to leave their homes in the East
and come to Dakota. The letters come
from sbona fide farmers, who have
mostly lived on their lands for years
and know whereof they speak. They
contain great deal of valuable infOr-
nation for people in the East and South
who are seeking homes in the North
west, and they ought to induce con-
siderable amount of immigration to

have passed. Gov. Church's scrutiniz-

do little legislating on their own hook,

PLANTATION given by those who
claim the proof is ready to

polations. While this would show a
fraudulent law, it is by no means the
strongest legal point against it. The
enc in regard to re-delegation of power
delegated by congress is deemed in
Seperable by our best legal minds. The
outcome anticipated is this: The county

counties show majority for division of

four can hardly be expected to furnish

this time, it is uncertain as to whether

A DEMOCRATIC INSULT.

The Facts About the Failure of
KanOuse and the Committee to
Settle the Bills at WOonsOcket
Pierce Caught in Another
FalsehOOd.
Special to the Globe
WooNSocKET. Nov. p. - The few
copies of Ex-Governor Pierce's Supple
ment that reached this place last Sun
day morning caused grand laugh.
Among other things were immense
headings announcing IAN UncalIed for
Insult to Congressman KanOuse; An
Exhibition of PartiZan Malice and
Spleen" etc. All this was called out
by the fact that the business men of the
town petitioned the said L. ID. KanOuSe
to make report of what he and the
other members of the executive COM
mittee did with several hundred dollars
raised here to defray the expense of the
late soldiers and sailors reunion. With
Mr.. Pierce'S usual enterprise in MAX
ing a mountain out of mole hill, this
is great insult to our
village justice of the peace,
otherwise the Republican congressman.
To show the folly of Mr.. Pierce in try
ing TO make out that kanOuse has been
inSulted by Democrats. the facts are
given. Long after the reunion was over,
and many of the creditors were clamor-
ing for their pay, Frank Kelly. editor of
the News, Republican paper, wrote
petition to the executive committee ask
ing for report. Il. NJ. Miller, also
Republican, circulated the petition, and
almost every business man TO whom it
was Observation-Disclosures and Demo-
cratS-Signed the petition. 1t was pre-
scented to the committee, composed of
three Republicans and three Democrats.
No report has ever been made of what
has become of the funds. This is the
grand insult to kanOuSe which Pierce
raves over and is one of the great
crimes" committed by the Dem
Ocratic administration. 1t is a fair
specimen of the rant and slush sent out
by the man at Bismarck, who dates let
tiers from towns in different parts of the
territory and writes them to suit him
self. The public will please remember
that Kanouse ct al. have made no report
of the funds. though the business men
gave them such Democratic insult.
Further, in regard to the attack on
the GLOBE, the fact is. that it circulates
ten copies to one of the Pioneer Press
here, though there is Republican
majority in this county. People want q
paper for newS-One that employs CORE
Sp0ndents in different parts of the terri

CANTON, Nov. 25.-The Advocate to-

YANKTON, Nov. 25.-Gen. Hugh J.
Campbell, on being interviewed by a
GLOBE representative in regard to the
recent division election, said:
THE diviSlOniStS of North and South
Dakota are in strong majority. A
large part of the apparent vote of North
Dakota against division was obtained by
false pretenses and want of under

counties the anti-diviSiOn leaders saw
that none but anti-diviSiOn tickets were
circulated. Our friends were only par

They are conferrlng now as to the
proper steps to take, and when they de-
eide l shall very cheerfully give the
GLOBE all information in regard to it.
There will be a representation of di-
visioniStS sent to congress to show that

many will read this and say that is all

fact, as have gone from here in Feb

whip them into buying the tooth powder

explained the matter to the posts by
the Issuance of the following circular
letter. which has been sent to all the
posts in the territory:
Headquarters Assistant Adiutant Gen
erals Office, &. A. r., Aberdeen, Nov.
21.-Dear COmrade: Inclosed. with Gen
eral Order No. and blank for post re-
turns, was a circular known as the Zone
State Convention Circular" Although
this did not have my name attached to
it in any manner whatever, nor was at
tention called to it by me in any way,
nor was it to be returned to me, nor did
my name appear Oh the return envelope,
yet. for its being mixed with official
matters pertaining to the G. A. R., |
owe every post and every member of
the q. A. r. all apology. The blame
was wholly mine, and take it all upon
myself No other person connected
with the G. A. X. had anything to do
with it in any way whatever. My only
excuse is thOughtlesSnesS. The circu-
lar was brought to me while | was pre-
pairing General Order No. for the
mails, and, without thought of the
harm, | inclOSed them with the order,
and i'll an hour they were III the mail on
their way to the posts. No one regrets
the act more than do, and no one could
be more ready to undo the wrong, if it
were possible, than myself.
So little of Col. Taylor'S letter per-
tainS to the G. A. r., l have taken this
manner of communicating with the
posts. instead of answering his letter
through the newspapers. That which
pertains to q. A. X. matters [ do not
care to discuss with him, and whatever

ters is of no interest to you. | can only
